Yes, it is important to keep an open mind, but not so open that one's
brain falls out :)

You have missed the essential point in Science-fiction and not to
intentionally insult you, perhaps science itself, my friend! Science
isn't
about what exists, it is about what we want to exist! Just as we have
overcome the Flat Earth, lack of Flight, and no Air Conditioning (the
true
reason for inventing coherent electricity!) these other things you list
will
become or have become reality through science...
